Celebrate Yalda the longest night of the year.Iranians recited poetry and shared stories and food Saturday in all-night celebrations of the longest night of the year, a tradition going back several thousand years to a time when Zoroastrianism was the predominant religion of ancient Persia. For many Iranians, the celebration, known as Yalda, offers a link with ancient traditions and heritage as well as a chance to gather with family.Zoroastrian was the main religion of Iran and practiced by Iranian Kings such as Cyrus the Great.

Sanandaj, Kurdistan Province, Iran
(From Wikipedia) Sanandaj or Sine (Persian: سنندج, Sanandaj; Kurdish: سنه, Sine) is the capital of the Iranian province of Kurdistan. At the latest population census, which was carried out on 25 October 2006, it had a population of 316,862.[1] The city of Sanandaj is the capital of the province, and lies at a distance of 512 km from Tehran, 1,480 m above sea level. It is also the administrative centre of Sanandaj County (the shahrestān of Sanandaj) as well as of a district (bakhsh) with the same name as the city. The population of Sanandaj is mainly Kurdish, with an Armenian, Chaldean and Jewish minority.[citation needed] While the local urban people refer to the city as Sine (= Sna), the people of local rural areas tend to use the word 'Kursan', a local variation of 'Kurdistan'.
